Eurostat regional yearbook

«Eurostat regional yearbook 2008
EU27 regions under the magnifying glass

In which EU region can you find the highest share of the labour force employed in high-tech sectors? Which region has the highest total number of nights spent in hotels? And which region has the lowest rate of road deaths?
The answers to these questions and many more are found in the 2008 edition of the Eurostat regional yearbook1 which is published by Eurostat, the Statistical Office of the European Communities. The publication gives an overview of the most recent economic, social and demographic developments in the 271 regions2 of the 27 Member States of the European Union as well as in regions in the three candidate countries (Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and Turkey) and the four EFTA countries (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland).
The Eurostat regional yearbook 2008 includes chapters on population, urban statistics, GDP, household accounts, structural business statistics, labour market, transport, tourism, science, technology & innovation, health and agriculture. The publication also contains two new subjects; labour costs and sectoral productivity. The latter was written by the European Commission Directorate-General for Regional Policy.
To illustrate the diversity of data found in the Eurostat regional yearbook, this News Release presents three indicators from different statistical fields.»
